The Potential of a Plant-Based Diet to Prevent New Influenza Viruses

Influenza is a highly contagious disease that responsible for significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. A viruses (IAVs) have the ability to cross interspecies barriers from avian carriers then rapidly circulate among infect crowded livestock creating breeding ground emergence of zoonotic with epidemic pandemic potential. They are susceptible antigenic shift drift hence cause recurring major epidemics pandemics. Intensive animal farming creates conditions amplification because physical genetic proximity billions animals, often in frail health, raised indoors every year. In particular, swine poultry infection both human influenza viruses, novel can be generated by reassortment viral segments. These transmitted via farm workers into population. Increased globalization factor worldwide spread spillover swine. The efficacy vaccination as public health measure limited vaccine, which needs reformulated biannually, degree access vaccine. most effective prophylaxis would therefore encourage less consumption products, thus reducing need intensive agriculture. This will cut link chain population, while at same time, improving more directly.
